Frequently asked questions

USClic is a U.S. market intelligence platform designed to help entrepreneurs, startups, and businesses explore a business idea before making a market-entry decision.

You can start with a business idea and explore its industry, U.S. location, market conditions, labor environment, demographic context, federal market activity, opportunities, risks, and other decision-relevant evidence when available.

USClic is designed for entrepreneurs, startups, small and medium-sized businesses, international companies exploring the United States, consultants, and other decision-makers who need structured U.S. market intelligence.

The workflow starts with your business idea. USClic then helps identify the relevant industry, asks you to select a target U.S. location and analysis focus, retrieves available evidence, and generates a structured market intelligence report.

Standard Market Analysis is USClic's core analysis. It combines structured business inputs, available U.S. government data, deterministic calculations where appropriate, and AI-assisted interpretation to provide a practical first assessment of a market opportunity.

Deep Research is the advanced research mode planned for the Pro experience. It is designed to investigate questions that may require evidence beyond standard government-data analysis, such as competitors, pricing, regulations, market conditions, and other decision-critical information.

No. Standard Market Analysis is designed for faster market validation using USClic's structured analysis workflow. Deep Research is intended for more extensive, multi-source investigation when a business decision requires deeper evidence.

USClic uses trusted U.S. public data sources such as the U.S. Census Bureau, Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), and USAspending, depending on the analysis and data availability.

Yes. AI is used for tasks such as understanding business descriptions and interpreting evidence. Critical numerical facts come from identified data sources or controlled calculations rather than being generated freely by the AI model.

VERIFIED identifies information supported by a connected evidence source used by the analysis. USClic separates source-backed evidence from analytical interpretation so users can better understand what is factual data and what is analysis.

ANALYTICAL means the statement is an interpretation, implication, or conclusion developed from the available evidence rather than a directly reported source value.

ESTIMATED indicates that a value is derived or approximated rather than directly reported as a verified source value. Assumptions and methodology should be considered before using an estimate for a major decision.

NOT CONNECTED indicates that USClic does not currently have sufficient connected evidence for that particular data point or research area. It should not be treated as a verified fact.

Different government datasets can use different surveys, methodologies, geographic definitions, and reporting periods. For example, Census survey estimates and BLS labor statistics should not automatically be treated as identical measurements.

USClic retains one unfinished analysis draft in your browser so you can return and continue where you left off.

An unfinished analysis draft is kept for up to 48 hours from the time the draft was originally created. Continuing to edit the draft does not restart the 48-hour period.

Not currently. Unfinished drafts are stored locally in the browser used to start the analysis. Completed analyses saved to your USClic account can be accessed across any device.

Once the analysis has been successfully generated and saved to your USClic account, the unfinished browser draft is cleared. The completed analysis will then reside in your saved analysis history.

Yes. USClic's Free plan includes two Standard Market Analyses for the lifetime of the free account.

Once the Free plan allowance has been used, generating additional analyses requires an active paid plan.

No. An analysis credit covers the computational generation process, not storage. Deleting a completed report does not restore the used credit.

No. Signing in, creating an account, browsing saved analyses, or editing an unfinished draft does not consume analysis credits.

No. Analyses that fail during generation will not count against your successfully completed analysis credit balance.

PDF exports and professional report generation are supported on eligible paid plans.

A USClic report effectively supports early-stage research and strategy, but formal feasibility studies for institutional lenders or regulators may require additional certified professional analysis.
